Abstract:
An object of the present disclosure is to provide a cellulose acetate film having excellent bending properties and high transparency. The subject cellulose acetate film contains cellulose acetate having a cellulose triacetate I crystal structure, the cellulose acetate film having a light transmittance of 70% or higher at 660 nm.
Abstract:
Object of the present invention is to provide an intestinal immune-enhancing agent that can sufficiently increase IgA in the intestinal tract with a low dose while maintaining an increased amount of IgA for an extended period of time. Provided is an intestinal immune-enhancing agent containing a cellulose acetate that has a total degree of acetyl substitution from 0.4 to 1.1.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is cellulose acetate fibers that have an excellent affinity for resins and is capable of reinforcing resins. The cellulose acetate fibers have a cellulose triacetate I crystal structure and a number-average fiber diameter of 2 nm or more but 400 nm or less.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a quantum dot composite that can maintain luminous efficiency per unit quantum dot even when a quantum dot concentration is high, and therefore can achieve a high emission intensity. The quantum dot composite includes: a matrix; and quantum dots dispersed in the matrix, wherein the matrix is composed of cellulose acetate having a compositional distribution index (CDI) of 3.0 or less, and a concentration of the quantum dots is 0.05 wt % or higher.
Abstract:
Provided is a process for obtaining solid cellulose, such as a cellulose solidified article or cellulose shaped article, from a cellulose solution without causing discharge of large amounts of waste liquids and environmental issues such as large energy consumption. The process produces solid cellulose through the steps of (A) dissolving cellulose in a solvent (s1) to give a cellulose solution, where the solvent (s1) includes at least one onium hydroxide in a content of from 45 to 85 percent by weight and water in a content of from 15 to 55 percent by weight, and the at least one onium hydroxide is selected from the group consisting of quaternary phosphonium hydroxides and quaternary ammonium hydroxides; (B) bringing the cellulose solution into contact with a poor solvent (s2) to precipitate cellulose as a cellulose solidified article; and (C) separating and collecting the cellulose solidified article.
